I am typing with bum fingers as we speak - this is the kind of blogging dedication that I try to hold as my standard. :-) I went to the doctor this morning to have some blemishes (a.k.a. warts - but that makes me feel like a frog with a disease - so we shall make them sound nicer) removed from each of my hands. Has anyone ever had these "blemishes" removed by way of "freezing" at your doctor's office? Oh! My! Word! I haven't felt that kind of pain since......since.....that one time I repeatedly stabbed myself with those sharp tweezers (oh yeah - that never happened - THAT'S JUST WHAT IT FELT LIKE TODAY!!!) OUCH! First they say "we're just going to scrape some of them off first". Then, next comes the bleeding, and then they immediately start shocking your "blemishes" with this gun that feels like you are being stabbed or electrocuted over and over about 15 times each side. I am gritting my teeth saying "What am I doing? I hope they are hurrying! Oh dear heavens above - is it over???" And I hear the words, "Now just one more round each side." I actually laughed out loud because it was either that or start bawling then and there with my doctor and this kid in his first year of medical school learning how to torture people for money. I am so glad I left little one at home with her daddy today. They had WAY more fun than I did and to end on a happy note - here are some pics that he took of her while I was out "getting a manicure". She says she is wearing purple gloves (just like Grannie B on BOZ)!
The throbbing is supposed to be over tomorrow......I'm really looking forward to tomorrow.

you poor thing- I probably would have just kept the "blemishes", but then I am a giant baby.
So Sorry!!! I've never had this done and hope I never have to!!!
I would have tried that old school stuff "Wart Off" first. That sounds like some sort of torture method they used in the old days to get people to talk! Thanks for the sacrifice though, loved the blog!
Let me just say girls that this was a LAST ATTEMPT effort. I tried freezing it myself, I tried compound W, I even tried the natural remedy of sticking duct tape on it - this method of torture was my only option left and by golly - they better be gone after this! They still hurt pretty good today!
